Help Make A Difference

I would like to formally thank all of the volunteers, businesses and bands who made the Gloversville Easter Egg Hunt a success again this year. I strongly believe that providing the youth of this city with family oriented activities and community based recreation is a stepping stone to a better tomorrow.

Growing up I remember the aged saying that there was nothing to do in Gloversville. I'd like that to change and will gladly continue to volunteer time to that end regardless of political affiliation, religion or organization. I encourage those who can to get involved. Every little bit helps and it is always a rewarding experience.
